1st gen 4x4 : Blew out bushing on the front diff mount, diff is hitting the frame

Hey guys,

so every time i would go into 4wd and hit the gas i would feel a clunk, i have finally figured out what it is. where the 2 mounting points for the front diff are right in front of the oil pan, where the bracket bolts to the frame. on the frame there is like a spacer, and a bushing that goes up against the spacer, my bushing goes completely over the spacer now and spacks the top of my frame..

is this something that needs to be pressed in? what is this part called?

 

bump

 

i found out what it is, incase anyone needs to know.
you need to get the whole mount to replace the bushing.
the mounts dealer cost, from the dealer are $90 each!
they are called front mounting cushion, and there is 2.

 

This is all the Manual has to say about it.

 

hey man thanks alot for copying that over for me!!
it is the front mounting cushion!

 

Wow..90 bucks Grrrr i suppose all you need is the bushing. Maybe get it from someone parting their truck out? Notice that there is a difference between right and left.

 

yep all i need is the bushing, but you cant get that seperatley....
already posted on a couple threads asking if they had em!

and yes i see, thanks. i want to get both, cause im sure the other one is on its way too.

 

I have the part you need. PM inbound.
